My girlfriend makes me happy. And so does this website.

And I love the rush I get when I'm working on a new project (usually another website), and I know it's going well. There's something about the anticipation of launching it...the "wow, wait until everyone sees this" feeling, that I just can't get enough of.

And of course, the end result of all the hard work: the check in the mail. That always cheers me up.

Public speaking makes me very unhappy (despite my persona here). When it is over with I am VERY glad as well as happy. As I am now.

GLAD:

Peter, Friday's, Any Job Well Done, 80% Completion of my Novel, Empty Parking Spaces, Holidays


Never actually unhappy so I will say....

MAD:

Peter, Monday's, Any Job Well Done without recognition, Getting Writer's block on the other 20% of my Novel, Empty Parking Spaces with handicapped sign's, to only be occupied by the non-handicapped, Holiday's with the relative that keeps sending you a 10 dollar gift certificate at Denny's every year, knowing that the nearest Denny's is in the next state. "Hey grab your bags family, must do an overnight trip, got to get to Denny's and spend this whole 10 bucks!"

HAPPY: Feeling loved by S, playing music, honesty, sunshine, vacation, money, vodka, sensi, being creative and get credit for it.

UNHAPPY: Feeling ignored by people I want to pay attention to me, shallow people, swedish winter, mindnumbing work, bills, greed, conservatism, dishonesty, untrue art.

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.

Aww pookie, I hope that S is me! lol I agree with untrue art.

Yes it is, Isabella.

I didn't know you were a stoner!
